MEXICO.
An American's Observations About
the Country and People.
Gath" has interviewed Mr. Gabriel
Wharton, of Louisville, Ky., who has
recently spent much time in Mexico,
and tho results of the conversation aro
given in the Cincinnati Enquirer:
A BEAUTIFUL COUNTBT AND NOTHING
IS IT.
"What is vour general idea of Mex
ico?"
"A beautiful country, with nothing
in it for us."
"Then you think Texas is worth all
of Mexico?"
"I do. It raises more, exports more,
has better soil, and more energetic peo
ple than all Mexico.
TOOK I.AXD, BIT 'WELL CULTIVATED.
"Now," said I to Col. Wharton, "ex

"It was originally a poor, thin soil,
and it is well nigh exhausted. There
was not much to get out, and there is
hnrdly anything left But it is a mis
take to say that they are not good cul
tivators. They are better farmers than
we arc, con'sidering what utensils they
nave. incy nave no improved ma
chinery to speak of, but they have the
most industrious labor, I suppose, on
tne giooe me peons or Indians. Mex
ico has 9.0W.000 of people; 5,000,000
of these are Indians. Of the better
society of Mexico, particularly the la
dies, you hardly see anything at all,
unless you should be taken to their
homes. But these peons are up early
and work late, and they exceed ne
groes or whites in their assiduity. They
will go miles and miles with 150 pounds
on their bucks, never complaining.
The Indian blood has produced the
strongest characters in recent Mexico.
Diaz is of that stock, and so was
Juarez."
"How do you mean that the soil is
well cultivated?"
"Because they cultivato up to tho
highest arable point on the mountains.
They go far up beyond tho place where
we would till tho land. There is so lit

MEXICAN MINING.
"How did tito gold com j out of the
ground?
"Why one of the peons will take a
rock as big as your desk and patiently
sit down beside it and split off a sm:ill
piece with a hammer, and ho will look
that little piece all over to seo if it has
a particle of gold in it, and let none
escape him. In that way, he will
slowly knock the rock to pieces, and
when' he is done with it, you will find
no gold there to get out The govern
ment formerly and the churches got the
mot of the gold."
"Then you think the mines of Mex
ico have been pretty well hunted
over?"
"Yes. If any man ever comes to you
and wants to sell you a mine which he
says is full of water, and only needs to
have the water pumped out to work it
to good advantage, don't you believe
him. If that mine is full of water, it
is pretty certain the Mexicans have
done with it, and havo got everything
out of it"
FINK CAVALRY.
"Did you see any of their troops?"
"Yes; 1 saw tomo splendid troops.
There are 7,000 soldiers kept in Mexico
City. They are as good troops as I
ever saw, clothed in blue, very much
like our regular army soldiers. I saw
the finest regiment of cavalry thero I
ever saw. Every horse in it was black
except one ridden by the colonel, and
that was pure white."
the crrr of mexico.
"Do you like Mexico City?"
"I did, very much, as a place to
linger, to loiter, to admire. The air is
so pure and limpid that all distances
seem obliterated. You go up on tho
mountains of Chepultepec, and the
city, three or four miles away, seems
so "close that you can touch it I loved
to sit up there and just look down at
the city, the lakes, and at the distant
mountains. There are four active vol
canoes in Mexico, and some of the high
peaks you can see from Chepultepec
one of them, forty miles away, looks as
if you can walk it in an hour."
'"Is Mexico City a busy place?"
"No; stupid, yet picturesque. They
say it has 390,000 people. There is
more life in New Orleans in one day
than In Mexico in a month."
MAXIMILIAN.
"Did you see any signs of Maximil
ian's dominions in Mexico?"
Only one, a kind of causeway or
viaduct that he built over the hill of
nultepeo to reach his palace thero.
That is all you find of Maximilian in
the country."
Do the Mexicans sav anything about
Maximilian, or have they any recard
for his fate?"
Not one bit They consider him a
mere barbarian, they consider his
fate to have been inevitable, and are
rather glad that he died, but do not say
much about it If the poor man were
alive to-day, and he could see the en
tiro absence of an impression he had
made on this people, it would break his
heart."
SANTA ANNA.
"Did you hear anything said about
Santa Anna?"
"No. I saw his grave, however, in
a beautiful cemetery out by the shrino
of Guadalupe. There is a spot up
there hardly an acre iu extent, which
contains the celebrated dead of Mexico
under some beautiful monuments. I
thought that cemetery was the prettiest
i nau ever seen, i uiso saw ttio grave
of Juarez, who was buried in the city.
He is carved in stone, lying down.
Notwithstanding all I have said, how
ever, Mexico is a land of delight to the
eye."
GAMBLING.
"What is tho passionate joy of the
Mexicans?"
"Gambling. I saw in the nionte
rooms more vitality than anywhere In
Mexico."

"A peon with a cotton shirt will fol

boy who had just hit hiiu iu the eye
with a wad of paper. "How old are
you, my sun?" "None of your busi

aim at another passenger. "Fine boy,"
smiled the oi l man, as her parent re
garded her offspring with pride. "A
remarkably fine boy. What is your

shouted the youngster, giggling at his

the old mnn, pleasantly. "If you had

till he didn't know which end of him

the lap of the scared mother, with a
benediction whereof the purport was
that she'd be back in a moment and

A Monster of the Southwest.
The lizard family attains great per
fection in tho southwest, climaxing in
the horrible creaturo called the Gila
Monster of Arizona. This is a big
black lizard, from a foot to four feet
in length. He has a pair of villainous,
bead-liko black eyes iD his head be
neath a couple of horny eyebrows that
give his face an uncommonly ferocious
expression. Around his neck is a broad
band of beautiful yellow, and I am con
vinced that should a recently imported
Irishman run afoul of ouo of theso
vermin ho would cuusider himself in
the prosence of the devil himself, wear
ing the colors of the prince of Orange.
The Arizma prospectors tell the
wildest tales about the poisonous quali
ties of the Giia monster, some even
claiming that the reptile kills its prey
bv breathing on it Its poison is con
tained in minute cells at the base of a
number of saw-liko teeth. Though
naturally a sluggish brute, it at times
exhibits the most frightful quickness,
darting like a Hash upon its prey and
seizing tho same between its jnws,
which it shuts and keeps closed with
tho strength and terfticity of a snapping
turtle. Meanwhile the poison slowiy
exudes and penetrates tho wounds
made by tho teeth, and if the victim bo
an animal of lesser degree than a man,
faintness and death speedily ensue.
The poison d:ffers from that of every
known venomous snake in being an
alkali, while that of serpents is acid.
It acts directly on the heart and brain
without local effects of a serious na

Pennsylvania The following ac
count of the origin of the name of
Pennsylvania is extracted from a letter
written by William Peuri, its founder,
dated Jan. 5, 1681:
"This day, alter many waitings,
watchings, soliciting?, and d'sputcs in
council, my country was confirmed to
me under the great seal of England
with large powers and privilege, by the
name of Pennsylvania a name the
king would give it in favor of my fa
ther. I chose New Wales, b.nnga hiily
country; and when the secretary, a
Welchman, refu-ed to call it New
Wales, I proposed Sylvania, and they
added Perm to it, though I was much
opposed to it, and went to the king to
have take it upon li.in; mr eotiid 20
guineas move ii struck out. IV: said it
was past and he would the under sec
retary to vary the name; for I feared it
might be looted on as a vanity in me,
and not as a re.-pect iu the king to my
father, as it real y wax."
